A workshop on "Good practices in the management of graduate transition to employment. Reflections on the implementation of a common Internet portal for all graduates from universities in Catalonia" was held on Thursday 28 February. Organised by AQU, the workshop was aimed at members of university social councils, vice-chancellors, officers in charge of university careers guidance and employment offices, graduate placement experts, and human resource professionals. Discussions were held on the usefulness of a common Internet portal with updated curriculum information on all graduates from universities in Catalonia, the purpose being to significantly improve the information on graduate transition to the labour market.
Presentations of the experiences of two programmes, one Italian (AlmaLaurea) and one British (Graduate Prospects) were presented, both of which are benchmarks for handling information on graduates employment and employers in Europe, were made during the workshop.
